Thin Client

Thin Client is a stripped down PC designed specifically to be a 'dumb terminal' in a client/server network. These terminals tend to cost less than fully-equipped computers especially since it uses software from - and processing power of - a remote server. Thin clients have no need for full software or internal devices of its own.
